This merry mermaid is enjoying her morning preparations with the help of the mirror. Her bright red hair is wild and cascades down her blue tail. She is wearing a pink shell bikini top that looks perfect against her skin, bright and vibrant. She is delicately taking a comb in her left hand and styling her hair as she admires her own beauty in the mirror, feeling happy yet sad at the same time, her eyes locked with her reflection. To bring out the beauty in this illustration, I suggest coloring the shell bikini top with shades of pink such as coral, salmon, or magenta. The red hair can be colored with deep, vivid hues such as scarlet or cinnamon. For some contrast, blend a hint of sky blue into the blue tail. Lastly, to make the mermaid's eyes pop, use a range of light and dark browns.
